I became a Democrat under Clinton and now I am for first time turning to the Republican party. I don't feel Obama is who he made us think he was. Why do we need 3rd term of Obama let us make our country great again, vote for Trump.

Thats absurd. Obama tried to portray himself as a New Dealer but was a neo-liberal. So instead of supporting New Dealers like Russ Feingold, Alan Grayson, Keith Ellison, Jamie Raskin, Pramila Jayapal, Bao Nguyen and Zephyr Teachout you go for a guy who promises to sharply increase user fees on everything in order to make up for the trillions he gives in tax breaks to himself and his cronies.

Sorry but I don't believe you. No Democrat would ever support Trump, it just doesn't work like that.

Welcome to the club. The Democrat party has become anti American with radicals bent on destroying everything good it use to stand for.

I see liberals wake up as they age and gradually become more conservative as they get wiser.

Never seen a conservative, although there has to be one or two out there, that have gone tooty fruity liberal.

Im 43, started as a Republican. Neither party is really my friend though, I just more and more view it as selecting the least offensive/scary candidate.

What is that saying about young people being liberal and older people being conservative.

I used to be a democrat until several things happened and I realized I had nothing in common with democrats anymore. It started with me having a problem voting for someone who thought abortion was all right. I rationalized that the person was the guilty party if they chose to abort the child. Then I decided to get involved with my precinct and the leader was a black jerk who thought we were supposed to be making sure the party did things for black people. Then my pastor pointed out to me personally that if you join up with a party and that party has things on its platform you are guilty of them even if you don't agree with them. But it took a very kind Republican who helped me when I needed help to make me realize I didn't belong in the democratic party anymore.

I went to the board of elections and said I have been with my dad's party for years. I think I will try my mom's party for a while. I am just about to change to unaffiliated. The actions of some of these selfish anti-Trumptors makes me realize I don't want to be in a party with them anymore. They are not for the good of America. They are padding their bank accounts. They made a big to do about him being loyal and then they are leaving him like a bunch of cowards. Can we say there is no honor among thieves. They are all robbing the American worker with NAFTA and other bad laws. You get the feeling they would sell their own mothers if you offer them enough money.

If they cared about the American people there would already be a wall and thousands of illegals would already be deported. They are more interested in being re-elected than they are in doing what is right. They deserve to lose their jobs.

The idiot doesn't see the irony of his post haha! Well done. They had Nathan Bedford Forrest and we had Abraham Lincoln....they just don't get it. Not to mention Robert Byrd, Hillary's mentor. Yea that's right, a true Grand Wizard of the KKK. The Democrat party IS racism and always will be...
